Unless we have a specific reason to do so, many of us don’t think too much about the health of our kidneys.  After all, if we’re in good health, then we can just assume that they’re happy enough getting on with the job of…of… actually, what do kidneys do exactly?

The benefits of hydrogen water go back thousands of years.

However, the way that the benefits of ionized alkaline water are understood have changed since the earliest ionizers were manufactured.

            Ionized Alkaline Water…what does it all mean?

 

Q  There is much talk these days regarding ionized alkaline water and all its benefits.
